Although the term 'midwife' conjures something archaic, modern midwives are highly educated and trained medical professionals. This bill will untie their hands so they can practice the way they have been trained. The problem with the written agreement is that we live in such a hostile litigious society. In these written agreements, doctors (in order to cover their backsides) prevent midwives from doing their job properly. This will allow many more women to access quality obstetrical care.
